In an attempt to replicate Terry's usage, I added the following patch:
```

When I did, I then ran the tests using the `-m` launcher:
```

```
As you can see, the location of the failing test in the log is masked, and
instead the description is present.
I've pushed
https://github.com/python/cpython/tree/bpo-46126/disable-descriptions-unittest-m,
which when applied disables the descriptions.
This approach works as a surgical intervention, wrapping `unittest.main` in
such a way that it could be replaced across the test suite to disable
descriptions. By subclassing the TextTestRunner, it continues to honor other
parameters from the command-line (such as verbosity).
Terry, would you review the concept? Does it meet your needs? If so, I can
apply it more broadly and prepare a PR.
